State cracks down on toll discounts for ineligible drivers

State cracks down on toll discounts for ineligible drivers - The Boston Globe: "A monthlong review of 3,600 of 18,000 recipients of the discount has found that about 10 percent do not live in the neighborhoods eligible for the 40-cent tolls.
Without the discount, tolls for both tunnels are $3 for a one-way trip. The review will not affect Charlestown and Chelsea residents, who pay 30 cents, rather than the normal $3, to use the Tobin Bridge under a separate Massachusetts Port Authority plan."
A reminder about the inequity of Turnpike and other tolls for those of us paying the full $1 at the Allston/Brighton tolls, while others get steep discounts
